Claim on page one of the introduction: ~100 de novo mutations per live birth, ~10% of these *obviously* deleterious . . . ruh roh I . . . I guess that's the book, let's pack it up, thanks for reading with me fellas
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a rotting carcass writhing immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth--forever
Going to skim the first few chapters; just a lay-friendly review of basic genetics. Figures are excellent though.pic.twitter.com/50YfuvUV1b
I'm actually reading more thoroughly than I'd expected. I finished my undergraduate biochemistry coursework in the mid-aughts, and it turns out a lot has happened since then. Pretty exciting to catch up! This table is very cool, frinstancepic.twitter.com/RAcfMRrDE4
Also interesting side note: genetics strikes me as maybe the most jargon-heavy discipline I know. And most of the jargon is just compression of relatively simple concepts--"varient", "location", "outcome", "one" vs "several" Wonder if this is territory-driven, or inefficient?pic.twitter.com/hVx4IdCOzN
Also interesting and new. Assume this varies quite a lot depending on which two random genotypes are chosen . . . eg, draws from Han vs draws from Indians of different castes (??) Seems like you could fix this with a weighted averagepic.twitter.com/gczcT2Snhp
Three million! Wow. Quite a lot more room for genetic determination than I had expected.pic.twitter.com/wk7ZDUau1M
Made it through the basic review chapters, on to mutation.
The text is surprisingly dense. I think the author was overestimating the capacity of his audience.
Or maybe it's just me. I've always had a harder time reshaping my thoughts around genetics than (eg) math econ

Surely this varies by radiation type? Eg imagine ingested alpha emitters are pretty effective mutagens relative to gamma emitters (??)pic.twitter.com/M5YTMC4NXf
Breaking for today, but going to keep going soon. Expect the tastiest parts yet to come.
enjoy getting blackpilled about the future of our species
Kinda thought this was going to be a set up for a "game theory" kind of tweet.
